How to check the battery charge on iPod shuffle
You can check how much battery life remains in your iPod shuffle by pressing the button on the back and noting the color of the LED.
When you turn iPod shuffle on, or disconnect it from your computer or power adapter, the status light tells you approximately how much charge is in the battery. See the table in the following section. If iPod shuffle is already on, you can check the battery status without interrupting playback by quickly switching iPod shuffle off and then on again.
iPod shuffle has two status lights, one on the top, and one on the bottom, that let you know when you've pressed a button, the state of the battery, that iPod shuffle is enabled as a disk, or if there's something wrong.
For best results, charge the battery fully the first time you use iPod shuffle. A depleted battery can be 80-percent charged in about two hours and fully charged in about four hours. If iPod shuffle isn’t used for a while, the battery might need to be recharged.
Here's what the battery status light means when you turn on or disconnect an iPod shuffle (Second Generation):
- Green = good charge (30% - 100%).
- Orange = low charge (10% - 30%)
- Red = very low charge <10%)
- No light = no charge
- alternating green and two orange for 10 seconds = ERROR: iPod shuffle must be restored

Tip: When charging iPod shuffle, make sure the computer is not in sleep mode. If you want to check battery status while it is charging, eject iPod shuffle from iTunes before checking. Sleep mode on some computers can turn off USB signals and prevent battery status from working.
